Abstract: A low cost plow lift and down pressure system comprising a lift frame having a lift end and a mount end for securing to a plow vehicle. A push frame is pivotably coupled between a plow and the lift frame. A lever beam articulates with a lift end of the lift frame between a rear end and a forward end of the lever beam. The lever beam is able to perform a first function from the forward end and a second function from the rear end. An actuator, typically in the form of a hydraulic cylinder, is pivotably coupled at a forward end of the lever beam and an opposed end of the actuator is pivotably coupled to the lift frame. Activation of the actuator results in activating at least two functions of the system.

Abstract: A low cost plow lift and down pressure system comprising a lift frame having a lift end and a mount end for securing to a plow vehicle. A lever beam articulates with a lift end of the lift frame. The system further comprises a; lift tension line, down pressure tension line, hydraulic pump, hydraulic cylinder, push frame, down pressure arm, and plow. A push frame extends between a plow and a lift frame. A lift tension line extends between a plow receiver near the plow and a lift receiver on the lever beam. A down pressure tension line extends between a first down pressure receiver on the lever beam to a second down pressure receiver located on a down pressure arm that is coupled to the push frame. Active extension and retraction of a first hydraulic cylinder causes consequent raising of the plow and plow down pressure.

Abstract: A supercapacitor power unit electrically coupled to a load. The supercapacitor power unit comprises a supercapacitor bank and charging system comprising at least two supercapacitor cells and an electrical conductor. The electrical conductor couples in series at least two supercapacitors to form a supercapacitor bank. A supercapacitor bank separator circuit interrupts the conductor in a charge mode to form at least two supercapacitor bank parts. The two supercapacitor bank parts form a supercapacitor bank in a load mode when the bank separator circuit is closed. The system includes a supercapacitor charge system electrically coupled separately to each said at least two supercapacitor bank parts for charging each supercapacitor bank part. Using this configuration, a supercapacitor bank is fully recharged without need of expensive electronics to boost the voltage from a local charging system.
